I Inherited Billions

Chapter 22

Spend the night with me?

Was Montana that open-minded?

I was shocked by her words, and my eyes widened in disbelief.

“Don’t misunderstand me, I don’t mean anything by it. I’m just afraid to be alone.” Montana’s face turned red and she quickly explained to me when she saw that I had misunderstood her.

“Oh, I see…”

I was ecstatic that she wanted to stay with me, but I pretended to hesitate. “But there’s only one bed in my room.”

“I can sleep on the floor.” Montana continued persuading me, afraid I would reject her.

“Don’t worry, I won’t trouble you for too long. Tomorrow. I’ll look for a new place tomorrow.”

“You’re moving?”

“Yup. Young Master Logan of South City knows where I live now. If I don’t move, he’ll keep coming here to look for trouble.”

“That’s true.” I was a little dejected to know that Montana was about to move.

I thought about it for a while before saying, “There’s no need to rush with moving away. You can stay here with me for now. I’ll go house hunting with you in a few days’ time.”

“You’re moving too?” A look of delight flashed across Montana’s eyes.

“Yup. Young Master Logan of South City won’t let me off after that kick I gave him in the nuts, which is why I think I’d better leave with you.”

“That’s great! We can share the rental for a better house. This way, we can take care of each other,” Montana said happily.

“Yeah.”

I was ecstatic to know that I would be able to continue staying with Montana. We were also now getting even closer by becoming housemates. However, I still pretended to look calm. “I’ll help you with your luggage. You can just stay with me without worries these next few days.”

“Thank you, Freddie. You’re the best.”

…

Montana went to the washroom after I moved her stuff into my room.

She was in there for over an hour.

When she emerged from the washroom, she was wearing a black and white maid’s costume, and she had also painted some exquisite makeup on her face.

“Are you starting a stream? You take your job really seriously!” I said in astonishment.

“Of course. My fans wait for me every day.”

She began working on her live streaming equipment after that.

When she was done, she turned to me. “Freddie, try to stay by the side later and don’t get into the shot. My fans would be hurt if they found out I was with you.”

“Got it.”

I might have agreed verbally, but I was not too happy about this.

How many tens of thousands of fans did Montana have?!

I was the legitimate husband of superstar Layla Owens.

If the public found out, her fans would be the ones truly hurt!

…

After Montana was done with her reminder, she began to adjust the camera and start the stream.

I hid to the side, playing with my phone while lying on the sofa.

Montana began her stream about ten minutes later.

I had nothing much to do, so I clicked into the streaming app and began watching her.

Her audience grew pretty quickly. It was not long after she began that there were already more than three thousand viewers.

The chat began to heat up quickly too.

Many of her fans expressed how the happiest time of their days was watching Cutie Pie Montana’s streaming.

It was pure happiness to watch Cutie Pie Montana streaming!

I secretly felt cocky as I read their comments.

These guys felt happiness just watching a live stream?

If they knew I was watching her live and in-person and would be sleeping with her tonight, they would be seething with jealousy.

I felt quite haughty at the thought of it!

…

Montana stopped her stream at about ten o’clock.

Her face was red, probably from the thought of what was coming next.

My face was also heating up.

However, I forced myself to act calm. “Urm… There’s only one bed in the room. Why don’t you take the bed? Don’t worry, I’ve already changed the sheets and blanket to new ones.”

“It’s… It’s fine.” Montana shook her head.

“I already feel quite bad for troubling you. How can I allow you to sleep on the floor?”

“Well, you’re a lady…”

“It’s really fine. There’s no need for you to sacrifice your bed for me. It’s okay for me to take the floor.” She immediately got an air mattress and began setting up her place on the floor.

I did not insist when I saw that she had already settled on her choice.

Once she was done setting out her bed, she went to the washroom to remove her makeup. She changed into her pajamas and turned off the lights.

“Goodnight, Freddie.”

“Yup. Goodnight.”

I laid in bed after saying goodnight and prepared to go to sleep.

However, how could I sleep when a delicate beauty was lying right next to me?

I tossed and turned in bed and could not go to sleep.

Montana seemed to be in the same situation. I could see her bright eyes in the dark.

“You can’t sleep too?” I asked.

“Yeah. Thank you for today. If you hadn’t helped me out, I wouldn’t know what to do,” said Montana.

I knew she was talking about Young Master Logan of South City.

I went along with her and began talking about it too. “Actually, I wasn’t just helping you. I was getting revenge for myself too…”

“Revenge?”

“Yeah. There’s a grudge between me and Young Master Logan of South City.”

I explained what had happened to me as simply as possible to Montana.

She was pretty mad on my behalf after I was done.

“That Terry Logan is such a terrible person! That kick of yours was much too lenient… If it had been me, I would make sure that kick made his nuts explode,” Montana said angrily.

“The kick to his nuts was not enough to punish him. I’ll be sure to torment him slowly… By the way, what contract was it that he was making you sign today?” I was suddenly reminded about it.

“There’s a streaming guild under his name that he wants me to be a part of. I absolutely refuse to join it. Even though I’ve only been in the industry a short time, there are rules that I’m very well aware of. If I join his guild, eighty percent of my income will belong to him, and I would be required to sleep with him. He would even make arrangements for me to escort other old men and accompany them to bed. I would never agree to it. He’s so disgusting.”

“That’s really too much.” I was enraged.

“That is why I really have to thank you today. If not for you, I wouldn’t know what else to do.”

“It’s only right for me to help you. Don’t worry. I’ll protect you from today onward. I won’t allow him to bully you again!” I said determinedly.

Montana went silent in the dark after she heard my words.

It was quite a while before she began mumbling, “Freddie, are you treating me so nicely because you have a crush on me?”

“I…”

Montana’s sudden question caught me unaware.

I stammered, not knowing how to reply to her.

It was a long time before I asked, “Why are you asking me this?”

“When we were in the washroom today, you got hard and it was pressing against me.” Montana’s voice was soft as she said this into the dark.

“I…”

My face burned at the mention of the embarrassment from earlier today.

Luckily for me, the room was very dark.

She had no idea how awkward I felt. “You can’t really judge me off of that. You’re a pretty girl, and any man would react to you.”

“Oh. I’m relieved to hear that. You should never have a crush on me.” Montana felt a weight roll off her shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief.

I was unhappy to hear her say that. “Is this because you think I’m poor?”

“No, it’s not that.”

Montana denied it fervently. “I just feel that it’s better for us to maintain our current relationship. Besides, you’re my assistant now. How can an assistant have a crush on his employer?”

“I see.”

I felt better after she said that.

“Besides, we’ll be housemates in the future, and it’ll be best for us to draw a clear line before entering into anything.”

“Yup, you’re right about that. Alright, let’s just go to sleep, shall we?”

I could hear Montana yawning in the dark.

“Okay. I’m getting sleepy too. It’s really goodnight from me now!”

“Goodnight.”

…

It could have been because Montana was tired and had suffered quite a shock in the day that it was not long before she fell asleep.

I fell asleep as well not long after that!

When I woke up the next morning, Montana was still asleep.

This girl had terrible posture when sleeping.

She had laid down all nice and straight last night, but when I woke up, I saw her lying horizontally across the bed. She had kicked her blanket off too.

Her fair, snowy thighs and half of her delicious breasts were exposed under the morning sunlight.

“f**k me, her breasts are seriously huge.”

I could not help gulping at the luscious sight in front of me.

Just as I was staring at her and admiring the wonderful sight in front of me, Montana’s eyes moved as she lay on the ground. It looked like she was about to wake up.
